Chaank Armaments is experimenting with the ultimate fighting machine which is part human - part machine. So far, the Hardman project has been unreliable and has killed a number of innocent people. The genius behind this project is Jack who lives in a world of models, toys and magazines. When he is fired by Cale for killing a few corporate officers, he unleashes the ultimate killing machine called the 'Warbeast' against Cale and those who would help her.

Death Machine is one of, if not THE greatest B movie of all time. Pacifist terrorists, killer robots, psychotic geniuses, this film has it all. If you enjoy really bad movies, then this should be top of your list to watch. Brad Dourif is on top form as the bad guy, and the rest of the cast struggle to keep up. The special effects budget seemed to stretch to some dodgy lighting effects and an abandoned warehouse. And the plot is a cross between robo-cop and your generic "people trapped in a building with a monster" story.
Overall, this film rules. Watch it now.
